              1. Request details
              Oh, thanks for coming. This is what we need you to investigate. "In ' Description of Greece' there is a reference to Praxiteles' statue of Hermes. In the statue Hermes is holding the infant Dionysus. I want you to find that statue." You should probably go read the "Description of Greece" in the library for clues.

              2. Travel record that remains in the afterlife
              Pausanias' "Description of Greece"? Yes, we have it. It's on the "Theology" shelf. Pausanias walked every corner of ancient Greece and recorded his findings in that book. It is thanks to him that we know what ancient Greece was like today. If you have any questions about anything in the book just ask me and I'll be glad to help you.

              3. Guide to Greece
              ...The marble statue I saw in the ruins at Olympia was that of a woman holding Dionysus as an infant in her left arm, resting that elbow on a tree trunk and putting her weight on that of one leg. This must be Praxiteles' statue of Hermes. All the statues in the Temples of Hera are so astonishing...

              4. Temple of Hera is the centre of Greece
              So the statue of Hermes is in the Temple of Hera? It says here that the Temples of Hera is located in the centre of the ruins at Olympia. Those are some of the oldest ruins in all of Greece and is thought to have been a hub of social activity during that time.

              5. Statue in the temple of Hera
              According to Pausanias' "Description of Greece" the statue of Hermes holding infant dionysus is in the Temple of Hera in the ruins at Olympia. The Temple of Hera is in the centre of the ruins at Olympia. I should explore the ruins at Olympia to the west of Athens and see if I can find the statue of Hermes.
